A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales. I keep playing super-long JRPGs back to back and I wanted a nice fun palate cleanser before starting the next one. And there was a sale to go along with the release of Brand New Day.
It's fun. Web-slinging feels good. Miles's unique powers are great quality of life improvements over the first game.
I would have waited a couple more months if I knew it was set around Christmas time. I'm the Christmas champion!
